The lift needs maintenance. The beds are atrocious. Every spring jabs into you all night long. Have they not changed the mattresses since turn of the century? Originally we were placed in a basement room that was hot, stuffy and claustrophobic, all for the price of $600 Canadian a night. The place was truly abominable, we had to move to another hotel after one night since we couldn’t stand how noisy and hot and unpleasant it was. Some mention the fabulous breakfast, the only thing that was palatable was the coffee and yoghurt with some frozen fruit on top, which they have a very limited supply and ran out fast. Save your cash, run far away and stay anywhere else, a park bench perhaps??

There was free parking available by the street side from 6pm to 8 am, a couple of restaurants nearby. Our rooms were at the basement and stairs going down were a bit narrow and could be an issue for older people.

Overall nice stay

Room was clean but very small, we were on the fourth floor and the room was to warm but we couldn't open the window because of noisy pigeons nesting on roof, but apart from this it was a nice stay.

Excellent stay

Set in a prominent position, on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow, this lovely guest house is a wonderful place. Part of the Argyll Hotel, we had to check in to the main hotel, across the road, before returning to the guest house. The room is small, but is perfectly sizeable to get your head down. Our room (room 1) had a double bed, body length mirror, a desk / dressing table, TV and two bedside tables. The desk had a kettle, two cups and teaspoons, and plenty of coffee, tea, sugar and milk available. There was also a hairdryer, although it was annoying to use because you have to keep your finger on the button for it to be on. The bathroom consisted of a sink with light-up mirror, toilet and a shower over a lovely bath. The shower had good pressure, and there was shower gel provided, mounted on the wall. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, and I recommend Argyll Guest House highly.

Listing needs updated

Need to update your information on here, including photos and the fact you don’t actually offer parking vouchers as stated. We ended up having to leave ASAP the next morning to avoid the pricey on street parking prices. Free at the weekend, but we were staying on a Sunday night so not free the next morning - either had to move the car somewhere first thing or just get up and leave. We were in quite a dingey room that didn’t look like the photos online. Felt like we were walking into a block of flats. No aircon in the room, quite dusty and dated. Just a fob scanner on the door - no staff in our building and we were the first room as you come in so was a bit unnerving if people were to walk in off the street. We only stayed here as we needed a room last minute that wasn’t ridiculously overpriced. Probably wouldn’t stay again.
